Watch EDHEC’s feedback in video

With 600 employees spread across several sites, the school has a strong ambition: to structure its management tools and modernize its budgetary process.

A heavy reliance on Excel and a need for centralization

Faced with an obsolete reporting tool, EDHEC could neither integrate extra-financial data nor easily involve operational staff in the budgetary process. The need was clear:

 

  • Centralize the budgetary process and reporting into a single tool

  • Improve data reliability

  • Streamline and energize reporting

  • Provide operational staff with a clear vision of their scope

Testimonial

“Our budget construction and simulations were carried out entirely in Excel. This could generate reliability issues in the information shared.”

A co-constructed approach with the MeltOne teams

The project was conducted with a co-construction logic: starting from existing Excel files and modeling real needs with the business teams. The project was conducted with a co-construction logic: starting from existing Excel files and modeling real needs with the business teams. MeltOne’s intervention allowed for a progressive increase in skills, with strong attention paid to training and the appropriation of the tool by users.

“The goal was to transcribe all needs into the tool: management control, payroll, P&L… with the EDHEC teams gaining skills so they could become autonomous.”
